My skin is crawling…

I heard yesterday while tuned into KTAR talk radio that Lifestyles condom company pitched an idea to 15 YEAR OLD Miley Cyrus to be one of their official “spokesgirls”.
What the hell is the world coming to?
I found myself steaming that anyone would even think that that would be ok to do. I kind of want [...]

Are You Kidding Me?

That was precisely what I was thinking when I walked out of our friendly Fry’s grocery store tonight with my wife Jessica…
As I approached the car, I noticed 2 women standing beside another car a couple of spaces from us. They were puffing away on their cigarettes while the kids they were “watching” were running [...]

In case you had any suspicion…

Does your spouse/child/family member/friend/dog have a particular shady side to them? Do they duck when they drive by police cars? Do they carry a Bowie knife of them at all times claiming that “you never know when you’ll need to cut your seatbelt off in a fiery car accident”? Did they “grow up” in a [...]

You are loved…

Every once in a while my mind sparks a memory of my Grandpa. If you never got to meet Sonny Stribling, I’m sorry for you would have been blessed to have shook the hand or hugged a genuine Southern gentleman.
He was a quiet respectful man who didn’t have to speak the words “I love you” [...]

Community & Cow Tongues.

Today was an amazing and challenging day at Cornerstone. We were privileged to have Mark Connelly from Superstition Springs Community Church sharing and speaking on using our God-given spiritual gifts for the benefit of the Kingdom. To not be a church “spectator” anymore. But to rally against the statistic that says that only approximately 20-30% [...]

Healer.

Man, I watched this and was literally on the verge of tears.
I just wish that we would learn how to completely give ourselves over to God’s healing and power and grace and mercy and discipline and glory. To stop being selfish and run with all abandon to the life of abundance that Jesus came for [...]

New T-Shirt Idea

So we’re trying out some new ideas for a T-shirt for our team/volunteers at Camber (our college ministry at Cornerstone). We’ve had a lot of great designs come through, but one keeps sticking in my noggin. I think this one is edgy yet straight to the point….
 
 
 

Papa Esteban looks so good sportin the new threads…
 
What [...]

Ewwww.

I just got done literally scalping my back lawn because I was fed up with the moderate infestation of these little bastards in my yard:

Granted, the common “earwig” or “pincher bug” if you will looks downright ferocious but it’s rather harmless. I was just sick and tired of them coming in my house….so I went [...]

Completely Ridiculous.

Whoa.
Compliments of Mr. Darren King, the drummer for Mute Math.

I like this…

While searching for a great thought to leave the HS students that I gathered with last night on the topic of worship, I came across this little diddy. What an amazing picture of the simplicity and humility that we embrace when we begin to understand this idea of worship…
 
“It is only in the possession of [...]
